Why Choose the Partex CEF2518F-C Insulated Cord End Ferrule?
The Partex CEF2518F-C is a high-quality single insulated cord end ferrule designed to provide secure, professional terminations for flexible stranded copper conductors. Suitable for 2.5 mm² cables, this grey bootlace ferrule features an 18 mm long crimp barrel and a durable insulating collar, making it ideal for electrical installations, industrial control panels and automation equipment.
Manufactured from tin-plated high-conductivity copper with a robust Polyamide 66 insulating sleeve, the CEF2518F-C helps protect fine conductor strands from spreading or damage during termination. The extended metal barrel provides additional insertion length for compatible terminal connections, while the grey insulating collar follows the French colour identification system for 2.5 mm² conductors.
With an 18 mm barrel length and a convenient pack of 100 ferrules, the Partex CEF2518F-C is a practical choice for electricians, panel builders, electrical contractors and OEM manufacturers. Its precision-formed construction supports consistent crimping and reliable connections in screw-clamp and other compatible terminal systems.

Reliable Electrical Connections for Control Panels and Industrial Wiring
Insulated cord end ferrules such as the Partex CEF2518F-C are used to prepare flexible stranded copper conductors for insertion into electrical terminals. During installation, the stripped conductor is inserted into the ferrule and compressed using an appropriate crimping tool. This creates a compact, mechanically supported wire end that helps prevent individual strands from separating when the conductor is secured inside a terminal.
The 18 mm extended barrel is particularly useful where compatible terminal designs require a longer conductor insertion length than standard ferrules provide. Its tin-plated copper construction supports effective electrical contact, while the grey Polyamide 66 collar helps guide the conductor into the barrel and provides additional insulation support at the wire entry point.
Designed for professional electrical assembly, the Partex CEF2518F-C supports neat wiring practices in distribution equipment, control cabinets and industrial automation installations. When correctly crimped and installed in a compatible terminal, it provides a dependable method of terminating flexible conductors while reducing the risk of stray strands and inconsistent connections.
